fuel leak around injector 6
Mot failer due to a fuel leak top back right of the engine. Injector 6 looks wet but others dont. Only drippling out so cant see where its coming from. Is it likely to be the injector or a split pipe somewhere? And its towards the side not middle of the engine as most past post seem to talkabout the middle being wet.
Thanks

Washer around top of injector?
I have no idea. I cant see it leaking. Just see fuel ontop of engine and on chassis rail after a drive.

Loose connection, crack in the pipe, or seat washer are the basics to look atPaul Redding

Could be the injector leak off pipe. I've had to replace mine.

Just don't loose the retaining clip ! Supplied in a kit that's about £60 i think, and that's for 1 and some other bits .....There is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes.

If the engine runs then it will be a spill (leak off) that runs from the top of the injector, shouldn't be a big problem
